How To Get Rid Of Red Bumpy Rashes On Stomach/neck/back?
Hi I have a yeast infection and purchased monistat 3 a few days ago. I read reviews and used it last night for the first time.. I didn't feel any buring or itching but I did wake up with a large red bumpy rash all over my stomach neck and back.. What should I do to get rid of it? Should I stay away from this product?

Hi
You seem to have developed an allergic reaction to the medicine.
You should surely avoid it's use in the future .
You need to apply a topical steroid cream like cortisone over the affected areas twice a day .
In addition you can take some oral antihistamine to decrease the allergic rash that you have developed .
Do not apply any other oil or cream over the affected areas .
See a local dermatologist so that you can be prescribed an antifungal agent according to the type of fungal infection that you have.
